Hostile Negotiation is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV triggered after a phone call. Niko saves Roman after he is kidnapped by Dimitri Rascalov.

Description

Once the player has completed Have a Heart and Photo Shoot, Niko Bellic will receive a call from Mallorie Bardas, who tells him that Roman has been kidnapped. Dimitri Rascalov sends a violent picture of Roman held at gunpoint which Niko mutters at (if you call Dimitri after reading the text, Niko will angrily curse at him, saying he will cut his fucking head off and threaten him).

Trivia

The events in Hostile Negotiation mark one of the few links between the GTA IV storyline and its episodic counterparts. In this example, the events shortly prior to this mission are played through the perspective of Johnny Klebitz in The Lost and Damned episodic content. It is revealed that Johnny Klebitz kidnapped Roman because Ashley owed Dimitri's men a favor after acquiring a large debt. This side of the kidnap, the mission name is Roman's Holiday, and has Johnny and Malc kidnapping Roman after gambling at his usual spot and then taking him to the warehouse in Bohan's Industrial District.
This mission, along with some other missions, is triggered automatically by a phone call.
While talking to Roman after saving him, Niko will say that he gives Roman money; but Niko is never shown giving money to him before or after this point it is possible that this is featured in a cutscene in one of the Deleted Missions.
This event is also briefly referenced in the original GTA IV storyline, in the form of Roman sending Niko a text explaining how a biker kidnapped him.
Once you receive the picture message of Roman from Dimitri, Niko will talk furiously about him, saying; "You've crossed the line, Dimitri"!
If you try to land on the roof of the warehouse with a helicopter, you will be shot by two guys standing on the roof with rocket launchers.
The staircase where you will go down (after you have rescued Roman) can actually be used to speed up the mission (on the part when you are about to save him); instead of going to the yellow marker, go upstairs, then you will hear the dialogue of Roman and the captor (because you are already at the same floor with them, only that you are outside the warehouse). Most of the henchmen from inside the building will take aggressive action and go up the stairs as well, making them prone to gunfire and, therefore, easier to kill (they have no cover). So it makes the mission a killing spree instead of a takedown.
An interesting phone call can take place if Niko calls Dimitri after he receives the photo of Roman. Niko will furiously describe how he will cut off Dimitri's face, and hang it on his wall to remind himself of what a treacherous, cheating scumbag looks like, then saying "Goodbye, friend." Niko calls him "friend" as a reference to Dimitri ending his own text messages to Niko with "Your friend, Dimitri."
There is a Carbine Rifle in one of the rooms on the bottom floor of the warehouse.
If you killed Ivan Bytchkov in the mission 'Ivan The Not So Terrible', a Russian-American goon will shout 'Say hello to Ivan the Terrible for me!" before being shot by Niko, possibly explaining Ivan had more connections with the Russian Mafia than previously known about.
If you have Dwayne's special ability you can call him and he will send two of his guys round to help.
As this mission is triggered by a phone call and not optionally triggered on the players own time by going to a location, it can be costly in terms of losing a prized vehicle, for example, if the mission triggers immediately following a date and before Niko can park at a safehouse and save. The game provides advance warning that the mission is coming by having Mallorie phone Niko a number of game hours prior to the mission expressing her concern that Roman never came home last night.

-After "Photo Shoot", Niko will get a call from Mallorie, saying that Roman has been kidnapped. In this mission, Dimitri Rascalov would send you a message of Roman, Niko's cousin being kidnapped and a shotgun pointed at him. (You would have got the higher grade handphone from Playboy X by now so you can view pictures.) You must make your way to a desserted warehouse at Bohan Industrial where a major shootout will begin after the cutscene where a gangster would tell Roman that Dimitri used him to get Niko. Niko will start to get into the warehouse first by taking cover, and the rest is up to you. After reaching the top of the warehouse(where Roman is). There will be a part when Roman is about to be executed, and you need to shoot in precision mode to hit the executioner. Roman will thank Niko with great gratitude and you will have to follow Roman down to the back enterance and get into the nearby Bobcat and drive him home.(the safe house at Bohan.) It should also be noted to avoid the red oil canisters while driving out of the warehouse area, as they will explode and destroy the car if ran over.

-After this Roman reveals his gambling addiction and also shortly after you drop Roman off, he will call you to inform that he has purchased a new penthouse in '''Middle Park'''. You can now use that as your safehouse. Also because Roman is making a great deal of money, he's bought a new fleet of cabs for his Car Services. Instead of the rusty old Esperanto it's now a black Cavalcade. However, he didn't hire any new taxi drivers (which means you're stuck with Mohammad!)
